  tobacco curing barns

 

Thailand

These tall, square, house-like structures, typically made with bricks and gabled roofs, are tobacco curing barns.

 

In Thai, they are known as rohng bom yah soob. Though, nowadays many have become redundant and are rapidly falling prey to the surrounding jungle vegetation.
